When Tea Party wants to go back, where is it to?
Post Date: 2010-10-27 09:56:22 by go65
3 Comments
As battle cries go, the Tea Party's "Take our country back" is a pretty good one. It's short and punchy, and it addresses a very widespread sense that the nation that Americans once lived in has changed, and not for the better. When the Tea Partyers get around to identifying how America has changed and to whose benefit, however, they get it almost all wrong. In the worldview of the American right -- and the polling shows conclusively that that's who the Tea Party is -- the nation, misled by President Obama, has gone down the path to socialism. In fact, far from venturing down that road, we've been stuck on the road to hyper- capitalism for three decades now. The ...
Cholera In Haiti Means We Must Act Now to Prevent Another Pandemic
Post Date: 2010-10-26 14:39:47 by WhiteSands

From the point of view of those of us who study infectious disease, it was only a matter of time before a cholera outbreak occurred amid the devastation of post-earthquake Haiti. Why? Because cholera spreads in areas where there is untreated sewage, contaminated water, and people living close together. Cholera may also spread easily among people who are ill or malnourished as is clearly the case throughout Haiti. What is cholera? It is a species of Vibrio bacteria and it produces a deadly toxin. The toxin is the key to why cholera is so deadly -- it kills 60 percent of those who acquire it but aren't treated. The bacteria is weak and doesn't invade the intestine, but the toxin, by ...
Six Reasons for U.S. to Abandon Free-Trade Myth
Post Date: 2010-10-26 11:48:44 by Brian S
3 Comments
Oct. 26 (Bloomberg) -- The price of living in the fantasy world of free-trade economics continues to rise for America. Failure to recognize the pitfalls will probably mean a continuing struggle to emerge from recession, as much U.S. domestic demand leaks abroad due to the trade deficit, rather than being recycled at home. And America will continue to lose key industries: not just the primitive ones a developed nation should shed, but the high-tech jobs of the future. Any serious discussion of free trade must confront David Ricardo’s celebrated 1817 theory of comparative advantage, whose tale of English cloth and Portuguese wine is familiar to generations of economics students. ...
Nancy Pelosi Who? Democrats deny being Democrats.

Nancy Pelosi said Monday that "we haven't really gotten the credit for what we have done," and the Speaker is right. However, it appears that her party will get that credit on November 2, which is why so many Democrats are now jumping the liberal ship, at least symbolically, to save their seats. This phenomenon reached new heights over the weekend, with Mississippi Democrat Gene Taylor telling a local newspaper, the Sun-Herald, that he voted for John McCain in 2008. Mr. Taylor had heretofore kept that vote a secret, and perhaps it's only a coincidence that he rolled it out amid the re-election fight of his career. The 11-term Member added that he won't support Mrs. ...

There is no doubt that the Republican party is poised for a big night - some are even predicting an historic night - next Tuesday when America goes to the polls. But the seeds of GOP failure have already been sown during this campaign and it is extremely doubtful that Republicans can achieve any of their short term goals, much less change the culture of America to reflect their outdated views of small government, low taxes, and a much stricter interpretation of the Constitution. There is no doubt government can be “smaller,” taxes “lower,” and judges put in place who would take a friendlier view of original intent. But the exaggerated goals of tea partiers and other ...

Now Isn’t the Time to Cut the Deficit
Post Date: 2010-10-25 11:15:41 by go65

THE clamor to cut the budget deficit is deafening. Blue Dog Democrats, Tea Party Republicans and doomsday economists are calling for immediate action. And the demands for austerity coming from abroad are even louder. Make no mistake: persistent large budget deficits are a significant problem. Government borrowing in good times crowds out private investment and lowers long-run growth. It can also make policy makers unable or unwilling to use adequate fiscal stimulus in times of need: concerns about the deficit limited the size of the stimulus act in 2009 and are a main reason that Congress has refused to take additional measures to cut our painfully high rate of unemployment. And our ...

This is local terror with an instructive purpose - its goal is to terrorize the Palestinians and teach them to behave as the settlers believe they should. By Zvi Bar'el Hebrew is a beautiful language. But it is also like a model whose golden days are behind her and must use pancake makeup to cover what age and strife have wrought. By way of example two terms that have become inseparable parts of the language, to the point that their real meanings has been forgotten: "price tag" and "neighbor procedure," which gave birth to "child procedure." On the face of it, what could be more innocent than retaliating to a past or future injustice? A settlers' ...
Bozell: NPR Firing of Juan Williams Is Outrageous, Congress Should Investigate.

Managing Editor's note: National Public Radio (NPR) has fired longtime analyst Juan Williams for admitting he gets nervous on a plane when he sees a person dressed in Muslim garb. What follows is a statement from NewsBusters publisher and Media Research Center President Brent Bozell. Juan Williams has done nothing wrong. What he said echoes what the vast majority of Americans believe. It’s their tax dollars that fund NPR. But NPR is ignoring them. Instead, they are kowtowing to the agenda of radical anti-Americans like CAIR, and doing the bidding of George Soros, who hates Fox News with a passion. And since when did NPR have standards? Here are just three examples of ...

Before the Tea Party philosophy is ever even tested in America, it will have succeeded, or it will have failed, in Great Britain. For in David Cameron the Brits have a prime minister who can fairly be described as a Tea Party Tory. Casting aside the guidance of Lord Keynes -- government-induced deficits are the right remedy for recessions -- Cameron has bet his own and his party's future on the new austerity. He is making Maggie Thatcher look like Tip O'Neill. Two headlines Thursday testify that the Tories have seized the Tea Party banner. First was the headline in The Washington Times, "Tea Party Urges Drastic Cutting," that carried a caveat subhead, "Economists ...

In response to Jim DeMint, Michelle Malkin, Bill O’Reilly, and other wingnuts who are calling for an end of Federal government support for National Public Radio because it fired commentator Juan Williams for hate speech against Muslim-Americans, I am calling for the Federal government to close all those loopholes whereby Rupert Murdoch essentially usurps our taxpayer money and uses it to finance his massive airwave pollution projects. That’s right, the US government is essentially underwriting Fox Cable News by allowing the Austrialian-American billionaire to evade the taxes that his secretaries and janitors have to pay. Murdoch’s evasion of taxes may not be illegal, but it ...

So my fellow Fox News analyst Juan Williams just got fired for saying something supposedly controversial about Muslims. But make no mistake, Juan isn't the only casualty today. So is American liberalism. On "The O'Reilly Factor" on Monday night, Williams said, "I mean, look, Bill, I'm not a bigot. You know the kind of books I've written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous." And this is a fireable offense? NPR issued a statement saying ...

In an article I wrote for Skip’s column on September 18 (read here), I challenged Charles Krauthammer’s comments regarding the election of Christine O’Donnell, an act which he, along with many others, believed would give Delaware to the Democrats on a plate. It was one of the rare occasions that I found myself disagreeing with this writer, who I admire greatly. In the same article, I covered the decision by Lisa Murkowski to run as a write-in candidate, following her primary defeat to Tea Party endorsed Joe Miller, and finished the column with the views of Jim DeMint, whose principles I strongly agree with. The reason that I recap this particular article is that it seems ...
Joe Miller's Just Another Nut From Fairbanks

Joe Miller revealed who he really is at Central Middle School Sunday: A bully and a budding fascist. After Miller wrapped himself in the Constitution before an audience of 100 or more Alaskans for an hour, his private security guards arrested journalist Tony Hopfinger during a minor dust-up with a Miller supporter. Hopfinger was handcuffed until police officers arrived to restore order. Hopfinger was allegedly trespassing. How do you trespass at a public event? Well, perhaps Miller got his inspiration from the leaders of the late East Germany who he told his audience had an effective immigration policy. You may remember East German border guards shot their countrymen bidding to escape to ...
If Sarah Palin Falls In A Forest?

It's strange to be aware that Sarah Palin is in California and no one I know seems to care much about it. Sure, my crowd is mostly Democrats, but I'm also thinking about GOP senate candidate Carly Fiorina and our would-be governor Meg Whitman. Both said they had other engagements this weekend -- they're washing their hair? -- and that's particularly hurtful coming from Fiorina. Palin's May endorsement helped shore up the former HP CEO's standing with party right-wingers, since Fiorina was a McCain surrogate in the state, and a real Tea Party candidate, Chuck DeVore, was in the race. But Fiorina told reporters she wouldn't be with Palin this weekend: ...
VIEWPOINT: Fire Illustrates Moral Emptiness Of Tea Party

Neo-conservatives in good ol’ Tennessee voted down a proposal to build a county fire department because it would have cost taxpayers a few dollars more each year. So firefighters watched a house burn to the ground with its owner’s four pets still inside. The owner didn’t a pay a $75 fee for service and so was not entitled to have his home and pets saved. This is Tea Party USA in action. No government, no taxes, no services, no civic duty, no morality. Reactions from the Mad Hatters were expressed with their usual contempt for another’s misery: "Good, he deserved it." I would not believe this degree of sociopathy and abject selfishness if I did not live in ...

Jeffrey Goldberg is the Israeli agent who is currently national correspondent for The Atlantic magazine. He helped engineer America’s invasion of Iraq based on the propagation of Goldberg’s well-publicized lie, published in the March, 2002 issue of The New Yorker and broadcast on NPR’s “All Things Considered” in February, 2003, that Saddam Hussein was an ally of the alleged 9/11 terror group, Al Qaeda. Now Goldberg is lying again. In a column published Oct. 12 on the website of The Atlantic magazine, Goldberg indicts the eminent Catholic historian and philosopher Joseph Sobran as a “Nazi.” This craven and despicable defamation had to wait until Sobran ...

Dear Pastor Grizzard, I love your plan to burn non-KJV Bibles, Books of Mormon, and other heretical works during your Halloween celebration, but your addition of Dolly Parton records makes it perfect.

‘Tea baggers’ Bave Hijacked Orginal Tea Party Message

Editor, I respect the original libertarian Tea Party of Rep. Ron Paul, Adam Kokesh and Gary Johnson. I applaud their opposition to the territorial pissing in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan, their support of individual civil liberties and the U.S. Constitution, and their libertarian stances on social issues. As for the Christian tea baggers who jumped on the Tea Party bandwagon — such as Sarah Palin and her cackle of rads like Susana Martinez, Jan Brewer, Sharon Angle and Christine O’Donnell — they come off as hypocritical in their positions. Is the Tea Party a libertarian non-religious movement or a radical Christian conservative movement? The tea baggers are always ...
GOP Parade Of Horribles: Carl Paladino

Today's editorial pretty much expresses my views on the rash of suicides of gay youth, the awful sexual torture of three gay men in New York and how windbag bigots like Republican candidate for New York governor Carl Paladino contribute to an atmosphere anti-gay prejudice. As the piece says, those wallowing in such ignorance provide "the hurtful slurs that eat away at the self-esteem of those who are gay or lesbian" and make "someone feel it's okay to verbally and physically harass, maim or even kill." But Paladino said something in his "Today Show" interview with Matt Lauer that needs to be highlighted for its pot-calling-the-kettle-black quality. ...

One thing that any new Republican majority in Congress will have to resist is the siren song to cut defense spending. Unfortunately, that temptation is real and growing. Which is why three prominent conservative leaders in Washington -- the Heritage Foundation's Ed Feulner, the American Enterprise Institute's Arthur Brooks, and the Weekly Standard's Bill Kristol -- took to the Wall Street Journal last week to argue for more robust defense spending. Feulner, Brooks, and Kristol are absolutely right. They note, for instance, that baseline defense spending -- that is, defense spending minus the cost of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan -- is just 3.6% of the Gross Domestic Product ...

As a scientist, I shouldn't have a stake in the upcoming midterm elections, but unfortunately, it seems that I -- and indeed all my fellow climate scientists -- do. Rep.

The focus would be on e-mails stolen from scientists at the University of East Anglia in Britain last fall that climate-change deniers have falsely claimed demonstrate wrongdoing by scientists, including me. Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) may do the same if he takes over a committee on climate change and energy ...
